Welcome to Action August

August 1, 2013

With Congress heading to their home districts for the month, their constituents — you — have a great opportunity to be heard. That's where Action August comes in: a nationwide grassroots effort to reach out to Congress, demanding action on key issues such as immigration reform and climate change. Let's make sure the message is loud and clear.

Check out all of the ways you can get involved, from blizzarding, to writing a letter to the editor or pledging to call your senator.

Throughout the month, attend events near you and check back here for news and updates from the field. It's about to get interesting.
